description:

Deriving from the observation made in the previous lesson learned (finding 52), the identify, the values, the expertise provided by a project such as ELAC and implemented by an organisation such as ILO make a decisive factor of impactful communication; obviously as long as it create a strong added-value. And the evaluation has been able to verify the value is strong and rather unique. However, as much as technical experts are able to advocate to gather interest and mobilise funding, the need for professional support in communication has been capture by the evaluation. Communication is persuasive and impactful internally as it helps strengthen the organisational “self-confidence” by formulation the competence of an organisation and its staff in simple terms. It also helps the recognition of this expert beyond the “circle” of experts, so it gets understood by decision-makers that are not experts and who need to be educated, “impacted” before making strategic choices. Thus, it appears that a condition for the communication effort to produce effective results will involve ILO being assertive in clearing communicating on the various elements of its added-value: International and national expertise, mandate, country presence / knowledge / understanding / strategic formulation, acknowledgement and credibility from stakeholders, quality and relevance of its interventions.

context:

Self-assertion is part of a process to achieve impactful communication, involving the promotion of ILO’s combination of expertise

success:

Taking stock of ILO assets and specific added value and integrating it in communication supports.

challenges:

The complexity of the project mechanisms and the length of the transformative process, if not communicated powerfully and clearly, are likely to receive limited understanding support from key stakeholders.
